Croup.
The peculiar cough which indicates
croup, is usually well known to the
mothers of croupy children. No time
should be lost in the treatment of it,
and for this purpose no medicine has
received more universal approval than
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Do not
wast? valuable time in experimenting
with untried remedies, no matter how
highly they may be recommended, but
give this medicine as directed and all
symptoms of croup will quickly disappear.

' Tinctured With Romance.
A marriage took place in Union or
last Saturday night that was somewhat
roinautic. The contracting partita were
Miss Beitie W hillock, one of Union's
charming young ladies and a daughter
of Mr. and Mia. F. M. "NVhitlock, and
Mr. E. S. McGlashan, an engineer on
the Southern Railroad between Columbia
and Savannah. The couple became
acquainted while Mr, McGlashau was
running the switch engine in Union
some time ago. For some reason it was
decided not to let the parents know of
the wedding, and a few friends were notitled
and they lent their aid. The young
lady's trunks were packed and takou to
a certain place in town where they were
kept until late in the evening, then
taken to the depot aud checked for Columbia.
The idea was to many at the
1st Methodist church just before train
time and go from there to the train.
The bride and groom and a number of
friends were at the church promptly on
time, and abjut 9 o'clock the ceremony
was performed by Itev. L. L. Wagoon.
It was something of an elaborate if quiet
affair. The couple were accompanied
by a groomsman and a bridesmaid. Mrs.
J. T. Rose furnished appropriate music
for the occasion and the organ pealed
forth the strains of Lohengriu's wedding
march as the party advanced to the al
tar, while the ceremony was being performed,
4'Ob, Promise Me," was rendered,
and the final piece was Meudlessolid's
wedding match as they retired
It was learned that the train was an
hour late, and there was somewhat of a
predicament, the party did not care to
go to the depot so loug before train time.
They remained in the church awhile, but
deciding the light in the church would
naturally attract the attention of the'
curious, it was finally decided to cross
over to a friend's house nearby and wait.
Finally the party came to the depot 20
minutes before the train arrived, by this
time a number of people had learned of
the affair and there were a goodly number
present to witness the arrival of the
party. In the meantime the parents
had caught on to the racket, but ra'sed
uo objection aud every i hing went smooth.
Miss Bertie is a very popular aud loveable
young lady and received congratulations
from those present. All wish
the couple much happiness and a long
aud prosperous life. They went to Columbia
where they will make their temporary
borne, aud will probably later
move to Savannah, where Mr. McGlashau'8
people live. Cupid has ways cf
his own that are nast. flnflint* out h? itio

"She walks in beauty like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skiej*;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Met in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies."
WEIGH T- WHITE,
The marriage of Geo M. Wright,
the popular General Manager of the
U. & G. S. R. R., and private Secretaiy
to President T. C. Duncan, of the Union
and Buffalo Cotton mills, to Miss Jane
Wardlaw, White, one of Abbeville's
charming belles, was solemnized at the
first Presbyterian church at Avbevillo,
S. C., on Wednesday of this week in
the presence of a host of friends of the
contracting parties both in Abbeville
and from Union. Dr. J. Lowie Williams
of Abbeville offciatiug.
A special train was run from Union
to CarlislQ..to take the groom and party
to the connection with the Seaboard air
Line train for AbbevelliJ. The Abbeville
Press and Banner, sp?aking of tha
wtdding says:
uMis3 White is one of Abbeville's fairest
daughters and it is with regret that
we learn she will make her home elsewhere.
Mr. Wright is a rising young
raw of Union, having a responsible position
with one of the mills of that city
Tho best wishes of a host of friends go
go with them. Mr. and Mrs. Wright
will go South for a few weeks' stay before
going to their home in Un'ou."
We voice the sentiment of this entire
community, when we wish for the happy
couple a pleasant journey, a safe return
and a long life full of happiness and
prosperity.

Newsy Letter From Blacksbatg.
Mr. Leach, the evangelist, and his
singer, Mr. Marshal, are carrying on
a series of meetings here at the city
hall. These meetings are being
largely attended and wo trust that J
much and lasting good may be done.
Huving often heard of Mr. Leach but '
having never seen him, I must confess
that the first time I went it was
to see tho man, I have been going
since to hear sermons. The stage
scene at tho hall is that of a forest or
grove. There are large trees, small
trees, straight trees, crooked trees
and gnarled trees, and above all floats
the white fleecy clouds, reminding
one of a bright summer day. Last
night during his discourse Mr. Leach
had occasion to recite the incident of
Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden.
He painted the picture so vivid that
in our imagination we all saw the
serpent crawl out on a knotted and
gnarled branch and with part oi its
body wound around the limb and the
other part swaying in tho air whisper
words of temptation to a fair woman
standing beneath. Then as the sermon
went on we saw God walking
through the garden calling for Adam.
And as we looked we saw Eve seated
under a tree in a remote corner of the
garden sewing fig leaves together.
Suddenly tho scene changed and we
were with the shepherds, the air was
filled with music and white winged
angels; in tho distance we saw a
bright star and heard the glad news
heralded forth that a Saviour was
born unto the world.
Mr. Editor, not many months ago
there was solemnized at the Methodist
church at this place a beautiful
wedding in high life. Annie attended
this marriage us a spectator, but
feeling that I could not do the occasion
justice refrained from mentioning
it at at all. Bright and prosperous
looked the future for those two.
They took a long bridal tour and returned
home to begin life as boarders
* v. ~ r< i 1 t ? t?-i. x- *

are sad to say these two are parted,
the bride has gone back to her parents
the groom to his old quarters.
Our knitting mill is at a complete
standstill. It has been placed in the
hands of a receiver. Mr. Wheat, of
Gaffney, now has it in his charge,
but no oue knows just when it will
start up again.
Miss Pearl Whisonant, of Wilkinsville,
10 visiting her cousin, Miss May
Whisonant.
Miss Ada Fulton and Mr. McSwain
of Blacksburg, were married recently.
A wedding dinner was served at the
home of the bride's parents.
Mrs. W. O. Curtis is quite sick.
A birthday dinner was givon at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Starn's
last Wednesday in honor of Mrs.
Starn's father, a very aged gentleman.
Mr. J. G. Hames and W. E. M.
Kirby, of Grindall, visited Mr. and
Mrs. J. L. Kirby recently.
We spent a very pleasant week at
Grindall Christmas, but the funny
part was returning home. Father
declared that the roads were so bad
we never could make the trip to GafTney
in a buggy, so he hitched up the
wagon, put on a white canvas cover
(like a mountain wagon) filled the
body full of hay, spread down some
quilts and then we all crawled in.
I'm sure, Mr. Editor, if you could
have seen us in the middle of the big
road splashing along through the
mud and Annie with a line in each

men walking?and momentarily expecting
to be stuck fast, you would
have laughed until you cried, But
the funny part was when wo began to
get in town everybody began to hail
us to know what we had for sale, and
one old "mountain boomer" wanted
to know if wo were "going up tho
kentry." Happily we were in time
to catch the evening train and as
shme one has expressed it when wo
got to Gaffney we were at Blacksburg.
We extend to B. B. our congratulations.
